Lithops helmuthii

I won't be blogging tomorrow. We'll be off to the Oregon coast for a little break and to celebrate Lynn-Marie's birthday ... and a worthy birthday to celebrate it is: 70. It's hard to believe we've been around that long. And we don't hide our years; we're proud of them. Yes, we still do stupid things - or at least I do (can't speak for Lynn-Marie) - I believe we've gained a little wisdom over the years.

In the meantime, here's a picture of L. helmuthii doing its thing. The flower's a little past its prime, but still impressive. It's one of my favorites.
And please, enjoy your plants!

Lithops helmuthii

Finally, I'm back...with more Lithops. This time it's Lithops helmuthii which is flowering. And what flowers! These photos don't do them justice. They literally shimmer in the sun light. Note the distinctive white centers to the flowers.
